Britt returns to action for the first time since a May loss to current Strikeforce champion Rafael “Feijao” Cavalcante. The heavy-handed 32-year-old has earned nine of his 11 career wins via knockout or TKO, and he eyes an eventual rematch with the Brazilian champ.

“This is a must-win fight for both of us,” Britt stated in today’s release. “I really want this bad. I thought I had ‘Feijao’ and would love a rematch with him, especially since he now is the Strikeforce champion.”

Meanwhile, St. Preux fights under the Strikeforce banner for the second time – and the first since his April debut for the promotion. The 27-year-old is currently riding a four-fight win streak comprised of four-straight first-round stoppages.

“Everything’s going good, but the more I win, the harder I know I have to work,” St. Preux stated. “I fought some tough guys early in my career because it didn’t matter to me who I fought. Looking back, I probably should have won all those fights, but I’m not mad because I learned so much from each of them.”
